I always find treasure on my walks
thankfully my parka has plently of pockets
but I always wish
that I had stuffed a grocery bag
in one of those pockets
yesterday
was a day of bundling up collections
of treasured things
tea dyed tags
on rusty
circled silks
chai bundles
and bones
maybe it is this odd winter
of circling around the ice
but I am smitten
with bundling
and gathering
circling round
the bundles
a drawing in close
a sensual love
for the odd, the found, the potentially discarded
but also
there are the treasures
that don't fit into my pockets
the quiet
sitting spots
the snow hearts
the tracks of wing-ed things
taking flight...
and the treasure
of your e-mails, notes and comments
many heartfelt thanks,
your generosity
is most appreciated...
